It is surprising that many financially unstable near-retirees are not taking advantage of the abundance of retirement income planning tools and investments available to the average investor. One of these investments, the retirement annuity, provides guaranteed and stable income along with the flexibility of early withdrawals and a degree of liquidity that is inaccessible with other investments. A recent survey by the Society of Actuaries or SOA says that while a third of its respondents worry about outliving their retirement funds, only a fifth are considering the purchase of an annuity and other products that guarantee fixed income for retirement.

Unfortunately, when that moment arrives many find there are not sufficient funds to allow this to happen. Instead, there is pressure to just get the bills paid.

This dream has been destroyed for many workers because the company shut its doors or just laid off a lot of people. The company pension might be half what was planned which changes the dream of sufficient retirement funds.People who are cautious look ahead to this possibility, knowing that things do not always work out as planned.
